Thread: My 04 Comp G Update: CTS-V calipers!!!

very nice.

I agree, but since you have the inferno spoiler already, it would match better.

Theres two things I hate.... one is carbon fiber... hate it. And second is the inferno spoiler. Lol.... but other than that the car looks nice.

Forgot to post that I got the wheels on. I staved up the wheels a little putting the tires on with the clamp but oh well. They are coming off this fall and getting powder coated a different color just haven't decided yet.

paint the spoiler black or throw it away. i personally think inferno spoiler is rice to the max, that + it being carbon fiber... so at least paint it black to match the car.

Do not paint carbon fiber, thats just dumb. Sell it and buy a non-CF one if you are going to do that.

Lookey what I got in the mail today!!!



Got one of them from Drunkie and I got the other from a junkyard for $40.

am i jealous... uh YEAH

Well, I bought my hubs to fix the death noise and got them in the mail today....... Also got these lovely items for $100 each brand spanking new.....



Let the madness begin!

where from? and i hope you have better luck with timkens them i do...those bearings go to **** twice as fast as napa's crappy generic brand

Well, I did my calipers last night. Here's how they came out:





Pictures really don't do the color justice.

List of mods for next month:

TOG headers
ZZP cat-back
Finishing the CTS-V brake set up with DBA 5000 rotors and ZZP S.S. lines
SE front lip
retro-fitted headlights
LIM gasket replacement and valve cover
19" Evo 5 rims

I'll update more often once the parts start coming in. Slowly but surely my car is coming along.

Car needs window tint, BAD.

I contemplated keeping them silver but after seeing all the pics of them in blue I just couldn't resist.
